The correct answer is D) it is the only way to keep peace in the colonies.

<em>Based on the excerpt, Paine suggested that American Independence was the only way to keep peace in the colonies. </em>

It is clearly stated in the excerpt when Tomas Paine writes “…But the most powerful of all arguments, is, that nothing but Independence…can keep the peace in the continent and preserve it…from civil wars.”

Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was a writer born in England but he supported the American Revolution. He wrote <em>“Common Sense”</em> on January 1776, where he referred to the Independence of America. That pamphlet was considered an inspiration to many people that wanted the Independence of the colonies from the British monarchy.

Answer: The Triangular Trade

Explanation:

The Triangular Trade was a method of trade used by Europeans in the 16th to 19th century that involved trading goods and people on 3 continents.

It typically began in West Africa where the Europeans would acquire enslaved people by either force or by trade. They would then take them to the Americas where they would trade the enslaved people for goods such as ginger, sugars, hides and pearls.

These goods would then be sent for trade in Europe and then with the profits made there they would then come back to west Africa for more trade thereby creating a sort of triangle from West Africa to the Americas to Europe and then back to Africa.
